GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The warranty on this unit does not cov-
er items that have been subjected to
operator abuse or negligence. To re-
ceive full value from the warranty, the
operator must maintain unit as
instructed in this manual. Various
adjustments will need to be made peri-
odically to properly maintain your unit.
• Once a year, replace the spark plug,
air filter, and check guide bar and
chain for wear. A new spark plug and
air filter assures proper air-fuel mixture
and helps your engine run better and
last longer.
